The 2018 Dodge Charger is offered with several engine options, all of which produce impressive power and speed. The base engine is an award-winning Pentastar 3.6-liter V6, which puts out 292 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque.

Next is a 5.7-liter HEMI V8, with 370 horsepower and 395 lb-ft of torque, followed by an even more impressive 6.4-liter HEMI V8 (featured on the SRT 392 model). The 6.4L engine offers 475 horsepower and 475 lb-ft of torque. The most powerful Charger engine is the supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI Hellcat V8, which produces 707 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. With the Hellcat engine, the Charger becomes the fastest sedan on the planet, reaching a top speed of 204 miles per hour. All of the available HEMI engines are equipped with standard Active Exhaust. Every 2018 Dodge Charger features a TorqueFlite automatic eight-speed transmission.

Is the Dodge Charger a sports car or a sedan?

Combining race-inspired mechanisms with the body of a full-sized sedan, the Dodge Charger has functionality beyond that of a typical sportscar. Ample shoulder room and large, comfortable seats make the Charger's interior a welcoming environment for driver and passengers- although the vehicle's speed and power will make sure that you remember you're riding in a Dodge muscle car! Other features that make the Charger an appealing daily driver are its large trunk (up to 16.5 cubic feet of space!), touchscreen infotainment interface, and available all-wheel-drive on the GT and GT Plus models. Available leather upholstery, dual-zone automatic temperature control, and USB, auxiliary and Bluetooth connectivity will give both driver and passengers a luxury feel, while a customizable 7-inch Driver Information Digital Cluster Display and a performance-inspired shifter ensure that the driver never forgets the muscle car engine beneath their vehicle's hood. Is the Dodge Charger a sports car or a sedan, you ask? We would say it's both.

What design features are available with the 2018 Dodge Charger?

Even though the Charger's body shares dimensions with a large sedan, that's where the aesthetic similarities end. 15 available exterior colors make the Charger stand out among other cars on the road, and include some old favorites like Plum Crazy, as well as all-new hues such as IndiGo Blue and F8 Green. On the interior premium cloth and leather upholstery can be designated in a number of colors and patterns, from a black Houndstooth to the eye-pooping signature Dodge Demonic Red leather. The available LED headlights and seamless LED racetrack taillight pop on the Charger's exterior. Available signature Dodge details include the brand's iconic split cross-hair grille, unique badging, and a black-painted roof.

Instead of investing in a weekends-only sports car that will spend months gathering dust in your garage while you commute in a boring sedan, why not combine the two? The 2018 Dodge Charger gives you all of the utility of a full-sized sedan (including available all-wheel-drive!) while also offering muscle car power and incredible style.
